Keep your Café du Cycliste Anne MVC jersey looking fresh. Learn how to wash, dry, and store your short sleeve cycling jersey for lasting comfort.
Quick Answer
Wash your Anne MVC jersey inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, then air dry away from direct heat. Avoid fabric softener and bleach to preserve the organic cotton and print.
Why Gentle Care Matters
The Anne MVC is made from 100% organic cotton with a ribbed collar and set-in sleeves. While cotton is naturally breathable, it can shrink or lose shape if washed in hot water or dried in a machine. Gentle care keeps the fit and feel you loved on day one.
The signature MVC print is heat-applied. High heat or harsh chemicals can cause it to crack or peel. Stick to cold water and mild detergent to protect the design.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How should I wash my Anne MVC jersey?
- Turn the jersey inside out. Use cold water (max 30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle. Add a mild liquid detergent – never bleach or fabric softener. Wash with similar colors.
- Can I put it in the dryer?
- No. High heat can shrink the cotton and damage the print. Instead, lay the jersey flat on a drying rack or hang it in the shade. Keep it away from radiators and direct sunlight. Air drying is the single best way to extend the life of your jersey.
- How do I remove stains?
- Treat stains as soon as possible. Dab (don't rub) a small amount of mild detergent onto the stain, let it sit for 10 minutes, then wash as usual. For oil-based stains, use a drop of dish soap before washing.
- How should I store the jersey?
- Fold it neatly and store in a cool, dry drawer or shelf. Avoid hanging it on a thin wire hanger for long periods, as the weight can stretch the collar and shoulders.
